its a little more complicated than that.
i am actually debugging kernel things in
http://user-mode-linux.sf.net/

which has a confusing method of working with
debuggers and does not keep a good copy of ebp around
but the process is already attached by a so called
debugger but really a system call interceptor.

its does not matter anymore i dont seem to need it now.
if i do in the future i will add a kernel patch to give it out in
/proc/<pid>/ebp or something.
